accept_mutex_on: Permission denied

Hello

I have compiled apache-ssl+php4 and have done the make install. When I try 
to start the properly configured apache I get the following error in 
errorlog, and the process stops.

[Wed Jan 23 16:44:54 2002] /home/ssl/apache/bin/gcache started
[Wed Jan 23 16:44:54 2002] [warn] pid file /home/ssl/apache/logs/httpd.pid
overwritten -- Unclean shutdown of previous Apache run?
[Wed Jan 23 16:44:54 2002] [notice] Apache/1.3.22 (Unix) configured --
resuming normal operations
[Wed Jan 23 16:44:54 2002] [notice] Accept mutex: sysvsem (Default: sysvsem)
[Wed Jan 23 16:44:54 2002] /home/ssl/apache/bin/gcache started
accept_mutex_on: Permission denied
[Wed Jan 23 16:44:55 2002] [alert] Child 10656 returned a Fatal error...
Apache is exiting!


I asked on the apache-ssl mailinglist, and was informed that it was an 
apache problem.

I looked around and wasn't able to find anything on usenet or in the list 
archives.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks again
Jon

That's a bit rich - "gcache" is the global cache server which is an
integral part of apache-SSL. It's hardly a core apache module...

Anyway, as to your problem, obviously something has run into a file
permissions problem when reading, writing or executing. I don't know
what files or devices gcache uses but I would check things like:

- did you create any files or directories as root that later need to be
written to by the apache User?
- are all executables executable?
- what happens if you try to start apache as root?
- is there a man page for gcache in the distro - what does it say?

Rgds,

Owen Boyle.

look at the ssl_engine_log in your logs directory for a possible error
like---
SSL handshake failed (server ........)
OpenSSL: error:14094412:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert bad
certificate [Hint: Subject CN in certificate not server name or
identical to CA!?]
